NIANswers: FAQ

The new NIAnswers has a much improved search functionality, which will allow you to easily search through previously answered questions to see if your economic question has already been answered.

You can submit a new entry to our database by clicking on "Submit Question" at the top. As soon as your question has been answered by NIA, you will receive an email with a link to read NIA's answer to your question.

When browsing individual categories, questions are automatically organized based on their date of entry into our database. All questions will display the date of when the question was first answered as well as another date of when the answer was last modified.

You can also choose to organize questions/answers by popularity. NIA has assigned an initial rating to each question from 1 to 10 based on how important we believe the entry is, with 10 being the most important. After reading a question/answer, you can choose if you "like" or dislike" the question/answer. Each week, questions will be assigned new popularity ratings based on the amount of likes and dislikes they have received from members.
